The first day that I can *believe* ("using the Blass word") some theory or
argument of such fantasy, I will begin to believe that the Little Red
Riddinghood story is a real truth.

By the way, I like more the theory: the gravitational influences and the ozone
layer of the earth are the main causes by which the humans loose against the
computer.

I dont see any relation with chess but it is just another absurd theory. Maybe
it can be true.... from this fantasy point of view ;)
